How AnansiTraps Works

Our deception platform detects attackers at the earliest stage by deploying realistic traps across your infrastructure. Legitimate users ignore them. Attackers cannot.

Deploy Decoys
Step 01

Deploy Realistic Decoys Across Your Infrastructure

Our lightweight sensors deploy across endpoints, cloud environments, web applications, and identity systems. These decoys appear as legitimate systems, files, and services but contain no real value.

Agent-Based Deception

Lightweight endpoint sensors that deploy realistic decoys for malware detection and lateral movement tracking.

Cloud & Host Decoys

Cloud-native deception for workloads, IAM credentials, and containers across hybrid environments.

Lure Attackers
Step 02

Lure Attackers with Invisible Traps

Attackers naturally scan, probe, and touch systems they shouldn't. Our decoys are strategically placed in high-value locations and appear as attractive targets, but contain no legitimate data or access.

Honeytokens

Invisible fake credentials and identities that detect credential theft and privilege escalation attempts.

Web Lures

Deception-based protection for websites, APIs, and login portals that exposes bots and scanners.

Key Principle: Legitimate users ignore decoys. Attackers cannot resist interacting with them.
Detect Early Movement
Step 03

Detect Attacker Movement Instantly

When an attacker interacts with a decoy, we trigger high-confidence alerts with near-zero false positives. We don't wait for malware signatures—we detect attacker behavior directly.

High-Confidence Alerts

Traditional tools generate alert fatigue. Our deception-based detection provides verified threat intelligence.

Behavior Detection

Detects reconnaissance, initial access, and lateral movement during the earliest attack stages.

Detection Capabilities:

  • Malware execution and lateral movement
  • Credential theft and privilege escalation
  • Cloud breaches before data exposure
  • Bot activity and credential stuffing
Analyze Attack Chains
Step 04

Analyze Complete Attack Chains

Our Threat Detection Engine correlates alerts across all deception sensors, providing context-rich intelligence about attacker behavior, tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs).

Attack Path Correlation

Visualize attacker movement across your infrastructure to understand the complete attack chain.

Forensic Evidence

Detailed logs and evidence preservation for compliance, investigation, and threat intelligence sharing.

Threat Intelligence Enrichment

Automatically enrich alerts with threat intelligence data to provide context about attacker origins, methods, and objectives.

Respond Instantly
Step 05

Respond and Contain Automatically

Our Incident Response Engine (AIRE) enables attack replay, evidence preservation, automated containment, and system lockdown. Detection without response is noise—we turn alerts into action.

Automated Containment

Isolate affected systems, block malicious IPs, and revoke compromised credentials automatically.

Attack Replay

Reconstruct the complete attack sequence for analysis, training, and evidence collection.

Fundamental Truth: Detection without response is noise. AIRE turns alerts into immediate, automated action.

Integrations & Capabilities

Slack

Integration

Slack

Connect AnansiTraps to Slack and get real-time threat alerts delivered directly to your security team's channels. The moment an attacker touches a deception asset, your SOC is notified — no dashboards to check, no delays in response.

"AnansiTraps fundamentally changed how we detect lateral movement in our infrastructure. Within weeks of deployment, we caught an advanced persistent threat that had evaded our traditional defenses for months. The ROI has been extraordinary."

CrowdStrike

Integration

CrowdStrike

Pair AnansiTraps with CrowdStrike Falcon to close the gap between deception and endpoint response. The moment a deception asset is triggered, AnansiTraps shares attacker intelligence with Falcon to automatically isolate compromised endpoints and stop the threat in its tracks.

"As a government agency handling sensitive citizen data, we needed a deception solution that met our strict compliance mandates. AnansiTraps not only passed our rigorous procurement audit — it has since become a cornerstone of our national cyber defense strategy."

Splunk

Built-in Capability

Splunk

AnansiTraps ships with native Splunk support out of the box. Deception telemetry is automatically streamed into your Splunk environment, giving your SOC enriched, high-fidelity alerts — no custom connectors, no professional services engagement required.

"Deploying AnansiTraps across our 47-branch network was seamless. The built-in Splunk capability meant our SOC had full deception visibility from day one. Threat detection time dropped by over 60% in the first quarter alone."

Sentry

Built-in Capability

Sentry

AnansiTraps includes built-in Sentry-powered error and anomaly monitoring across all deception infrastructure. Every probe, interaction, and attacker action is tracked with full observability — giving your team a reliable, self-healing deception layer with zero blind spots.

"After a high-profile breach at a peer institution, our board mandated an immediate uplift in detection capabilities. AnansiTraps was live within 72 hours and has since flagged multiple insider threat scenarios our SIEM completely missed. The confidence it gives our leadership is invaluable."

AWS

Cloud Platform

AWS

AnansiTraps deploys natively on AWS and extends deception coverage across your cloud environment. We provision honeypots across VPCs, protect S3 resources, and integrate with AWS Security Hub — so attackers who breach your perimeter walk straight into our traps.

"We operate critical energy infrastructure across multiple countries. AnansiTraps gives us early-warning capability to detect nation-state level intrusions before they reach our operational technology networks. It's not just a product — it's a strategic advantage."

Microsoft Azure

Cloud Platform

Microsoft Azure

AnansiTraps runs on Azure and places intelligent deception assets across your cloud tenants. We integrate natively with Microsoft Sentinel to enrich SIEM alerts with deception context, automate response playbooks, and deliver full-spectrum visibility across hybrid environments.

"We evaluated five deception technology vendors. AnansiTraps was the only one that could deploy natively on our Azure-first architecture, meet our data residency requirements, and deliver results in under a week. Six months in, it remains the highest-signal, lowest-noise tool in our security stack."

Cloud Platform

Google Cloud Platform

AnansiTraps deploys on Google Cloud Platform and seeds deception assets across your GCP projects. We integrate with Google Security Command Center to surface attacker activity in real time — protecting your cloud-native workloads with traps that are indistinguishable from real resources.

"AnansiTraps sits at the heart of our multi-cloud security posture. The GCP deployment was up in hours, and we now have unified deception coverage across on-premise, AWS, and GCP — all managed from a single console. No other vendor came close."
